What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps independent IT consultants navigate the French ESN/SI ecosystem to maximize effective daily rate, reduce payment risk, and improve contract outcomes by making hidden margins and rate mechanics transparent.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • ESN margin architecture decoding: Breaks down how a client sell rate turns into a consultant buy rate, then compares outcomes across portage salarial, micro-entreprise, and SASU/EURL using concrete net-efficiency comparisons.

  • Platform and contract decision support: Compares Malt/collective.work/Comet/Crème de la Crème/Free-Work tradeoffs, and supplies contract review guidance for non-compete clauses, renewal conditions, and payment terms.

Quick Start

Use this Skill to prepare a French ESN negotiation plan for a 700 EUR/day TJM target, including portage vs micro-entreprise effective net comparisons and a counter-strategy for typical ESN objections.
